Pop-up window according to size of image??

soonkhoo · May 24, 2001

Hi... I have a thumbnail pic that I like to pop open a window of a larger version. But I want the size of the pop up to follow the size of the pic. There might be some other way of doing it but I'm just worried about the 800x600 and 1024x768 problem. Thanks.

this technique should work, but this question belongs in the javascript forum. just pass the source of the image to startPreview (i only tested this in IE5.5):

Global_imageviewer = false;
function previewImage(isrc)
{
var height,width,str,spcs;

if(imagedimensions.readyState=="complete&quot

{
clearInterval(imgint_)
spcs = " "
str = "about:"+spcs+"<body leftmargin=0 topmargin=0><img src='"+isrc+"'></body>"
primgbutton.innerText = "Preview Image";
primgbutton.disabled=false;
height = imagedimensions.height;
width = imagedimensions.width;
Global_imageviewer = window.open(str,"imagepreview_window","width="+width+",height="+height)
}
}

function startPreview(isrc)
{
if(Global_imageviewer){if(!Global_imageviewer.closed)Global_imageviewer.close()}
imagedimensions.src=isrc;
primgbutton.innerText = "(please wait)";
primgbutton.disabled=true;
imgint_ = setInterval(function(){previewImage(isrc)},1);
}

Hmmm I tried passing values in it...but it returned error on me. I must be doing something wrong... I called startPreview(img/pic1.gif).

Thanks.
